Your companion through breast cancer – experiences at the Swiss Medical Network clinics

Breast cancer is not only a medical diagnosis, but also a deeply personal challenge. For those affected, life changes abruptly, and the journey through the disease requires not only medical, but also emotional and psychological support.

At the Swiss Medical Network clinics, the focus is on providing holistic support for patients – from diagnosis and treatment to aftercare.

Three patients talk about their experiences of breast cancer treatment in the specialised breast centres at the Genolier, Générale-Beaulieu and Sant'Anna clinics.

Mon cancer du sein, Centre du Sein de la Clinique de Genolier

In the video from the Clinique de Genolier, a patient describes her personal journey through breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. She emphasises how she was accompanied not only medically but also emotionally from the very beginning. The open and understanding communication with the doctors and nurses helped her to gain confidence in the treatment process and overcome her fears.

Mon cancer du sein, Centre du Sein de la Clinique Générale-Beaulieu

The patient at the breast centre of the Clinique Générale-Beaulieu emphasises the importance of individual and personalised treatment. Her medical team not only treated the tumour, but also took her personal needs and concerns into consideration. The medical expertise combined with empathetic support strengthened her confidence in the healing process.

Il mio tumore al seno, Centro di Senologia, Clinica Sant'Anna

In the Italian-language testimonial from the Clinica Sant'Anna, the close collaboration of the multidisciplinary team is emphasised. For the patient, it was particularly important that the doctors treating her worked hand in hand – from oncologists to radiologists to plastic surgeons. The feeling of being perceived as a person and not just as a ‘patient’ helped her to undergo the treatment with confidence and trust.

Holistic care as the key to recovery

What all these stories have in common is the emphasis on holistic care. Each patient is unique and deserves individual treatment that goes far beyond mere medical care. At Swiss Medical Network breast centres, patients are offered comprehensive support: psychological support, nutritional advice, plastic surgery options and a follow-up plan tailored to their needs.

Collaboration in multidisciplinary teams ensures that patients receive the best possible care and support at every stage of their journey. From initial diagnosis to reconstruction, patients know that they can count on a dedicated and experienced team to support them along the way.
